The end of Syria’s civil war has sparked mixed emotions among Syrian refugees in Germany. While many are ecstatic that they might return to their homeland, the concerns regarding their stability and refugee status loom large. Iman Mohammed, a Syrian refugee, reflects on the challenges she and her family have faced and the life they have built in Germany since fleeing their war-torn country nearly a decade ago. With the recent political changes, she realizes that the dream of returning home might not be as straightforward as it seems.
